i did some stupid [ expletive ] but i didn't intend to kill nobody. >> brown is at the jail now to go to court due to a crime he committed at age 19. he was convicted of sexual battery. back then there were no laws requiring sex offenders to register. because he is eligible for parole in two years, he was recently informed he must register and has hired a lawyer to fight that ruling. >> i didn't register the first time i got out of prison. the fist time. there was no reason for me to say. there was no laws or whatever budget now there are laws. >> brown says the hardest thing about being back in jail is having a window with a view. being able to look out a window and see freedom so close but knowing you probably not gonna be out there for the next decade or so. sometime -- honestly sometime i wish that window wasn't even there. that makes it harder, looking

out a prison window. you don't see nothing outside of the prisons's walls. once you get in prison and you get away from that you learn not to worry about it because it's not there and in your face. but once it's like a little kid with candy. they see it and they gonna want it. i see it and i want it. and all that's doing now is making me sad. >> david bell longs to return to his life on the street as well. >> when i look out this window, it is like my mind open up. i can see the world moving around me. i want to go back out there and move with the world. while i'm in here i'm standing still but out there i'm moving with the world. in here it's dead time. out there that's where i'm alive at. >> it's possible bell will never be alive out there again. he's facing the possibility of the death penalty for a murder that occurred during a home invasion robbery. his trial begins in days. but first bell has problems to

deal with inside the jail. three days earlier deputy burke searched bell's mattress and found one of the largest stashes of tobacco officers ever seen in the jail. >> that is a whole lot. >> the special investigation unit is looking into how the tobacco got into the facility. but in the mean thyme the jail has handed down punishment. kirkendal got five days in the a segregation for being in a cell that wasn't his. david bell got ten days for possession of contraband and five days segregation. during the segregation he will lose all privileges and be confined to a single cell 23 hours a day. >> what's 15 days compared to three years. no matter where you at it's all the same. it's just how you do your name.

>> bell initially denied the tobacco wasn't his. he now tells a different story. >> yeah it was mine. it was mine. when it come to everybody else i can't really speak on them or who was involved or if it was somebody else involved. but of course some money got to be getting made off of it. because that's a whole lot. >> how much is one rolled cigarette? >> a name brand cigarette probably go anywhere from 5, 6, $7 in here by itself. >> how can you trade in currency when there is no currency in jail? it seems like standard currency ends up being commissary. >> i don't really want to expose the system how it works but people do have money on their books that can be released. so they can transfer it off of their books and send it to where you want it to go. like maybe somebody on the streets.

that was about 5, 6, $700 right there in cigarettes by itself. so off the loose tobacco, that's about 3, $4,000 right there, man. that's about 3 or $4,000. >> how does one get all of this tobacco? >> no i can't speak on how i got it. it just popped up. it just appeared out of nowhere. there is a lot of different ways for tobacco or any other substance to enter this jail from court, from inmates that work outside. it is a lot of loopholes. but the jail has to be ran like that. because people do have certain rights. so people have to go to rec and bump into other people and then they have to go to court. it is no telling when this stuff is going down. it is going to be hard to figure out but i don't see them being able to fix it.

>> coming up, the jail's investigation continues. >> maybe it wasn't an inmate that brought it in. maybe it is something that works on the inside here. ll, if a lotd off a bridge, would you? you hungry? i'm okay right -- i'm... i'm becoming my, uh, mother. it's been hard, but some of the stuff he says is actually pretty helpful. pumpkin, bundling our home and auto insurance is a good deal! like buying in bulk! that's fun, right? progressive can't protect you from becoming your parents, but we can protect your home and auto. progressiv♪ can't protect you from becoming your parents, ♪

at the hamilton county justice center >> i've been here 25 years and i've never seen this amount of tobacco or cigarettes come into the facility. my first inclination is that maybe it wasn't an inmate that brought it. in maybe it is somebody that works on the inside here. so that is why this investigation is going to be continued further with our internal affairs section. we were able to determine, you know, mr. bell did indeed have the contraband on him and in his cell. but we're still investigating

how the contraband got into the facility. i conducted ten interviews, eight of them were of the individuals that were housed in the same pod that mr. bell was in. also interviewed the two porters that work up there. we were able to determine a few little things. but not one of the inmates would tell us where the tobacco or the other items had come from. >> those guys in there, i'm proud of them. >> that's how we do it in here, you feel me? >> they solid. they ain't snitching. they live by the code. so they'll be all right man. i wish'em luck. >> there are no criminal charges that we can place on mr. bell right now. tobacco is not a criminal charge. now if it would have been an illegal substance such as marijuana or heroin, then we would have pursued criminal charges against mr. bell. >> though bell won't face criminal charges he is serving 15 days in disciplinary segregation, where he's confined

to a single cell 23 hours a day and loses all privileges. >> i'm looking at it in a positive aspect. i got 15 days to think and better myself. it don't matter where they put me. >> but now bell's time in segregation is interrupted. his trial has started. >> i've been waiting for this moment for three years. >> what was it like seeing your family today. >> it's real rare for me to get emotional. but my mom is one of the people that touched my heart. so when i saw her cry, that did something to me. it made me cry because we been through a whole lot. >> bell could get the death penalty for a home invasion murder he allegedly carried out with annishia smith. and testifying against bell to better her own situation is still an option for smith. >> when you go to court, what is going to happen? you going to testify? >> if they ask me to testify and all that, i'm still thinking. because i don't want to try to bring the next person down just

to get myself up. because i'm not that type of person. but at the end of the day, you have to do what's best for you. i have to think about my son, what's best for me and what's best for him. it is like a choice. i have to choose my codefendant or have to choose my son. >> because of the jail's policy of the non contact visits smith hasn't been able to touch her four-year-old son in the three years she's been at the jail. but it's been regular visits from him and her mother that's kept her motivated. >> it's tough to see him growing up. kids change. he was here last week and he asked me why am i in jail. i just told him the bad people arrested me and brought me here. and now the good people got get me out. >> and today amariye has come for a visit along with his grandmother shannon. >> who are you seeing, ma'am?

>> annishia smith. >> when annishia went to jail, i didn't give it a second thought about raising my grandson. i went and i got him. and he's been with me ever since. this is not how i planned on spending my 40s. i was more so thinking the kids were going to be grown. it was going to be easier. i'm gonna be able to sit back and relax. see my grand kids on sundays. none of that's true. he's getting ready to turn five this year. and she's been here ever since he was one. and this is the only real contact he's had as far as mother and child goes with his mother, that he can remember. so it's very important to get to see her.

>> hey mommy. >> hey. >> visits mean a lot. but at the same time i hate him to see me through a glass. because i know that even though he dent say it that he want a hug and he want to touch me, reach out. and i want to reach out to him too. >> petsmart. >> at petsmart? >> yeah. fat cats at petsmart. >> what else did they have? >> a big fat bird. >> and a bird. >> you want a rat? >> a rat? but you got a cat. you cat gonna eat your rat? you got to tell mama and papa to get it. he want a rat the cat gonna eat the rat. >> i'm taking care of you, him and the cat. this situation when i realized how severe this was, it's like

our whole life stopped. everything that we had planned, everything we wanted to do just -- is -- this is hard. i can tell this is wearing on you right now? >> what you say? >> this is getting to you. >> mommy. what's getting to me? >> it will be okay. >> i know. i'm fine. >> i didn't graduate. and i wanted all my kids to graduate and to see them graduate. and let them know that it's better things out there. that you don't have to struggle like i had to struggle to raise them. you know, and to see what she's

facing is just -- it's a tough situation. it's crazy. but you got to stay strong. remember, regardless of what go on. you still got amariye. you still got to be here for him. >> i know. >> you got to understand something. you might not be able to be there physically for him but you can be there emotionally and mentally. >> i know. >> it's all good. tell her you love her. say bye-bye. >> bye-bye. >> get your book, get your glass. tell her bye.

staff. >> the odds are you find one or two individuals that cross that line every now and then. so we did look outside of that inmate perimeter to find as to how it was getting in. i think we have a good idea how it got in. certain people were scrutinized. certainly people don't even realize they are being scrutinized. months down the road we may find out how that got in here and that's just due to diligence. >> and david bell just completed his 15 days segregation. and he's now moved into another pod reserved for those charged or convicted of murder. >> the murder pod, they banned me in the south building after getting caught from all that stuff. >> and bell has found a new chess partner in deandre brown. >> every time i play this it make me think. and that is what take many game

>> according to her testimony smith was in the house with the victims as part of the fake date she had sent up and then sent bell text messages with descriptions of the items in the house and who was inside. prosecutors say bell responded with these text message, indicating his intention to dill victims. >> when somebody tell you they about to do something like that you don't really think oh are they about to go -- i didn't believe that that's what the outcome was going to be that night. the main thing that makes me feel guilty and i regret is not calling the police. because i could have prevented this all. and i know that i'm guilty for not putting a stop to it. and also i did lie and cover for him. i should never have covered in the first place. i feel like i made the right choice by testifying. because at the end of the day, it all boils down to my son.

and i should be out there with him instead of being in here trying to cover for somebody. >> she a snitch. she a snitch and i hate that i would have never did this to her. no matter what. >> checkmate. coming up -- >> we are back on the record for the jury trial of the state of ohio versus david bell -- >> the verdict for david bell. >> is that what you were expecting? >> no, it's not what i was expecting. able to replace everything in it. liberty did what? liberty mutual paid to replace all of our property that was damaged. and we didn't have to touch our savings. yeah, our insurance won't do that. well, there goes my boat.

i love cincinnati, but at the end of the day from what i'm seeing, this city might as well be called snitch-innati.

because that's basically what's going on, a whole lot of snitching. >> david bell has been at the hamilton county justice center in cincinnati, ohio, for the past three years awaiting trial for charges including aggravated murder, attempted murder and aggravated robbery. to his dismay, annishia smith who allegedly was with him during the crimes recently decided to testify against him in the case. >> i should have never covered for him in the first place. >> she a snitch. she a snitch and i hate that about her. >> now it appears her testimony along with other evidence against him, like his dna on the murder weapon, had an impact. >> the jury came back with a verdict of guilty on all the counts, all the charges. >> is that what you were expecting? >> no, it's not what i was expecting. i was really shocked. because i thought maybe i would get found guilty on some charges and not others.

but yeah, i got found guilty of everything. >> smith says she's not surprised with the outcome. >> based on the evidence it was appropriate for him to be found guilty. i mean it was a no-brainer what the outcome was going to be. and i think that he knew what the outcome was going to be. but by him being a man anyway, you know, they have pride issues. so if he his feeling hurt or pain he east probably not wearing it on the outside. >> you're now a convicted murderer. >> yep. >> have you thought about that? >> yep. >> what's it feel like? >> i was already basically labeled as the convicted murderer when i came in the charge. >> so now? >> so now it's just official. >> it doesn't bother you? >> nope. >> why is that? >> because i know i'm gonna get one day. it's not that i don't care. it's that i already -- i'm past this moment, i'm thinking of the future. >> but bell's future is in the hands of the same 12 jurors who

just convicted him. he will now return to court to find out his sentence. the best case is 25 years to life. worst case, the death penalty. >> all rise. >> i think they might give me 30 to life. i don't want to say 25 to live and jinx it. >> we are back on the record for the jury trial of the state of ohio versus david bell. >> i'm really not sure what he's going to be sentenced to, but i do hope and pray that it's not the death penalty. because i don't wish that on anyone. >> we the jury being duly empanelled and sworn do they'reby find that the aggravating circumstances the defendant was found guilty of committing does not outweigh the mitigating factors presented in this case by proof beyond a reasonable doubt. we therefore unanimously find that the sentence of life in many prisonment without the possibility of parole should be

imposed upon david bell. signed, all 12 jurors with the foreperson in the 12th spot. at this time, ladies and gentlemen, without further ado, you are excused from your duties on this jury. and you are no longer under sequestration. thank you so much for your service. >> all rise. >> even with the news that he'll spend the rest of his life locked up, bell says he views it as a victory of sorts. >> when i was sitting in the courtroom, i almost died. like i almost was sentenced to death. it just gave me an adrenaline rush for real. like, i don't know, it was funny for real. >> why funny? that sounds scary. >> because the prosecutors were just so thirsty just basically trying to kill me. they probably mad, oh, we didn't get him. but now i'm still alive so what can they do, man? what can they do? i'm still alive.

>> my mom told me that david had got life. i'm not sure if i'm gonna be sentenced based off of how he sentenced. worst case scenario is i would have to go to prison for a few years. but i don't believe that it will be, you know, drastic. >> i hope annishia get out. she got a son out there. so she need to get out. >> do you forgive her? >> no. >> if he was worried or he was stressed, he didn't show it. i mean, it's like he accepted it. he got a road ahead of him. he got a bumpy road ahead of him. >> when that day come i'm gone, when they see cherish life on my eyelids.

they gonna know oh yeah he went through a situation where he really cherished life. >> i'm happy that i can finally put this stage of my situation behind me and get onto the next one, and right now i have life without parole. i know i'm not getting out any time soon. but my definition of freedom is different. as long as i'm alive, i can pretty much take anything that comes my way.

due to mature subject matter, discretion is advised. right now we're going to call the sergeant, let them know what's going on. and there's urine coming up the floor. >> recently sentenced to prison, a troubled, young inmate attempts to make a final impression on staff. >> why can't you ask like you have some sense? >> another inmate acts out in order to achieve a very different goal.
